“Jan” is a poetic cultural space inspired by Kashan’s historic houses and Rumi’s philosophy. Its minimalist, feminine curves aim to restore anima in a patriarchal city. Built along three symbolic axes—the lover’s mind (Y), the presence of the beloved (X), and divine light (Z)—the architecture unfolds a spatial narrative of longing. Contemporary Kufic script flows across the walls, while yin-yang geometry balances energy. Jan rises like a white blossom from dark soil—where space becomes devotion, and light becomes language.
